Gear Up with these Rugged Outdoor Accessories." src="http://static.iphonelife.com/sites/iphonelife.com/files/resize/fugoo-tough-big-wednesday-600x400.jpg" style="width:600px; height:400px" title="" width="600" height="400" /></a></p>
<p>Even though it's still winter across much of the U.S., spring is just around the corner with its longer days, warming temperatures, and the promise of outdoor adventures. And after what has been such an intense winter for much of the country, playing in the beautiful spring air probably sounds pretty good to many of you right about now. To that end, we've rounded up some of the best, must-have gear for your spring and summertime fun.</p>
<p></p>
<p>It's not too early to start preparing for (or at least daydreaming of) your outdoor escapades when the weather finally warms up. The following iOS-friendly gear and accessories are built tough. All of these products share the common goal of helping us bring our iDevices —and all that they offer—with us as we venture back outdoors and into potentially precarious environments and situations.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2>Extreme-Duty iPhone Cases</h2>
<p><img alt="Are You Ready for Warmer Weather? Gear Up with these Rugged Outdoor Accessories." src="http://static.iphonelife.com/sites/iphonelife.com/files/resize/unnamed-1_0-600x579-570x550.jpg" style="width:570px; height:550px" title="" width="570" height="550" /></p>
<p>In just a few short years, companies like <a href="http://www.catalystlifestyle.com">Catalyst</a>, <a href="http://www.lifeproof.com/en/">Lifeproof</a>, <a href="https://www.dogandbonecases.com">Dog &amp; Bone</a>, and <a href="http://www.seidioonline.com/Articles.asp?ID=313">Seidio</a> have collectively revolutionized the rugged waterproof case market. These companies have taken the concept of a protective case and turned it on its head, crafting full-time-use cases for the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus that are incredibly sleek and slim while offering unrivaled protection from the elements. Generally speaking, although the <a href="http://www.catalystlifestyle.com/collections/frontpage/products/catalyst-case-for-iphone-5-5s-pacific-blue">Catalyst</a> (starting at <strong>$64.99</strong> for the iPhone 5/5S) trumps all of the above mentioned cases (albeit by a small margin), each one of these cases has its own distinguishing features that set them apart and make them worthy of consideration, most notably the<a href="http://www.lifeproof.com/en/fre-power-case-for-iphone-6/"> Lifeproof Frē Power</a>&nbsp;with its built in 2,600 mAh battery.</p>
<p><div class="standalone-image" style="width: 522px"><img alt="Are You Ready for Warmer Weather?

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2>Military Standard iPad Cases</h2>
<p>If you are the type who also likes to carry your iPad along on your adventures, there are some great options for you too. The <a href="http://store.griffintechnology.com/ipad-mini">Griffin Survivor All-Terrain</a> (starting as low as <strong>$59.99</strong>) comes in a variety of color options and offers some of the best shock/drop protection you'll find. And <a href="http://www.lifeproof.com/shop/us_en/ipad-cases/">Lifeproof</a> brings the same exceptional quality and waterproof durability to their line of iPad cases (starting at&nbsp;<strong>$83.99</strong>) as they do to their line of iPhone cases. <a href="http://www.pelican.com/mobile/product.php?Case=CE3180">Pelican</a> also offers an excellent protective iPad case with their Vault series (<strong>$73.32</strong> for the <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Pelican-ProGear-Extreme-Protection-Display/dp/B00EAXRVTG">iPad mini</a>) which includes a built-in protective cover which doubles as a viewing stand.

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2>Rugged Audio Gear</h2>
<p>Most of us take our iDevices everywhere, but we all know it's hard to fully appreciate the great audio that the devices can provide if we have to rely on their built-in speakers. Let's face it, the speakers these devices ship with are rather inadequate for delivering loud, room-filling sound or audio with clear, crisp precision—especially for anyone who happens to consider themselves an audiophile.&nbsp;<span>If you're in the market for a great audio accessory</span>—<span>one that is built tough and able to handle just about any adversity you can throw at it</span>—<span>there are some great options for you.</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>Finally, no roundup of rugged headphones would be complete without mentioning the waterproof&nbsp;<a href="http://smsaudio.com/products/biosport-in-ear-wired-with-heart-monitor">SMS BioSport in-ear headphones</a>&nbsp;<strong>($149.95)</strong>, which not only deliver studio quality audio, they also have an added feature of monitoring your heart rate, making the BioSports the perfect pair for athletes and fitness enthusiasts.</p>

<p>While this is a fairly comprehensive roundup of awesome, rugged, adventure-ready gear, obviously it doesn't cover every good product on the market. If you know of an exceptional, ruggedly designed product that you feel should've been included, please mention it in the comments section below.

<p>San Diego, CA - January 13, 2015 – Kamino Labs, the travel and urban exploration planning company, focused on changing the way people interact with cities through the use of mobile technology, rolls out a new version of their app and website with new and updated features, just in time for the new year. </p>
<p>Created by explorers, the Kamino walking tour app is the ultimate way for locals and tourists to embark on an urban adventure. With Kamino explorers can unlock an authentic city experience, fully equipped with user-generated information like detailed area descriptions, photos, GPS enabled maps, and recommendations from travel experts and locals. Currently, there are walking tours in over 90 cities around the world, providing fun things to do in each one.</p>
<p>The Kamino mobile app has been reinvented for 2015, making exploring cities around the world, easier than ever. With an all new look and feel, Kamino is also adding some new features to make exploring fun and convenient. Kamino now offers customized walking tours with suggestions from Kamino, so users can create their very own, unique tour—coming soon, Uber Integration, allowing users to call an Uber car directly from the Kamino app.</p>
<p>Kamino has also redesigned their website to help travelers find the best experience from planning to doing. The website has been augmented to provide tools for inspiration, planning and booking, like walking tour searches and featured blog posts, and will even offer travel booking to help streamline travel plans.</p>
<p>The new Kamino Experts Program showcases the most experienced travel experts, putting them front and center, while the city pages aggregate all the walking tours, posts and information so users can plan the best travel experience ever.</p>
<p>Kamino has also launched B2B services, including the Kamino API for travel brands that want to enhance existing websites and mobile apps.</p>
<p>One of the coolest additions to Kamino for the New Year is the White Label App Program for travel brands, allowing those brands and even travel experts to create their very own travel app powered by the Kamino platform. This program will allow users and guests to follow curated, walkable itineraries that ensure a positive experience and drive brand loyalty.</p>
<p>To kick off the launch of the new and improved Kamino app and platform, Kamino will be running a promotional contest for travel bloggers and writers to have a chance at winning their very own White Label app, in addition to other prizes for them and their readers, like an iPhone 6 and Amazon gift cards.</p>
<p>Travel bloggers and writers are invited to participate in this contest starting today, January 13, through January 23, 2015, based on creating best original travel recommendations in the form of walking tours within Kamino. Contestants are asked to sign into Kamino and create unique content in the form of walking tours. Once all participants have completed their walking tours and written content, they are asked to post an announcement/article along with a widget to their website or blog. From January 24-February 6, participants are to encourage readers, followers, friends and family to go onto the Kamino website or app to save/favorite the walking tour they created. The contestant with the most amount of saved “favorited walking tours” will win first prize. Second and third place prizes will also be given. Please note: voters must sign into Kamino in order to save/favorite walking tours.</p>
<p>Participants in the contest will be considered for the Kamino Expert Program, provided they meet Kamino guidelines and standards, usually by invitation only. The Kamino Expert Program allows writers to use the Kamino platform to showcase their travel brand, by increasing engagement and visibility as a travel industry leader with content marketing designed to complement existing communication platforms. In addition, it will allow writers to cross promote their travel brand to increase awareness and visibility within the industry, build customer engagement, create customized walking tours and drive awareness of their website, travel content and social media with customized profile, accessible contact information, and RSS feed from personal blog/website.<br />

<div>Lifeproof's newest waterproof case for the iPhone 6 debuted at CES 2015 and incorporates a built-in external battery (a first for the Lifeproof brand) which doubles the iPhone 6's battery life, while preserving Lifeproof's highest standards of insulation, protection, and durability.&nbsp;The frē Power as it is called, won iPhone Life Magazine's prestigious Best of CES award, and with good reason.</div>
<div></div>
<div><span>Leave it to </span><a href="http://www.lifeproof.com/en/">Lifeproof</a><span> to debut the first waterproof case with a built-in, external battery for the iPhone 6. <strong>The frē Power </strong></span><span><strong>($119.95</strong>)</span><span> will feature Lifeproof's tried and true, 4-Proof technology, providing maximum protection from water, drops, dust, and snow.</span></div>
<p><img alt="" src="http://static.iphonelife.com/sites/iphonelife.com/files/resize/unnamed-1_1-680x510.jpg" style="height:510px; width:680px" title="" width="680" height="510" /></p>
<p>Like all of the waterproof cases in the Lifeproof catalog, the frē Power is a relatively minimalist case, even with a 2,600 mAh lithium ion battery embedded in the back panel of the case. It adds negligible weight and little extra bulk, while completely doubling the iPhone 6's battery life. It also meets the demanding MIL-STD-810 criteria for durability. Like all of Lifeproof's other cases, the&nbsp;frē Power&nbsp;is waterproof to a depth of 6.6 feet for at least an hour, and drop proof up to 6.6 feet as well.</p>
<p><span>We're expecting this case to be available by summer, just in time for people to go out and abuse their iPhones and get them all wet. Stay tuned to iPhone Life and we'll keep you updated when release dates for this award-winning new </span>Lifeproof<span> case become available.</span></p>

<p><img alt=" Meet the ZANO Autonomous Drone, Aerial Selfies were Never this Easy!" src="http://static.iphonelife.com/sites/iphonelife.com/files/resize/b3b617971c2d731f3e070230288a9ff4_large-680x454.jpg" style="height:454px; width:680px" title="" width="680" height="454" /></p>
<p>The autonomous, intelligent <a href="http://www.flyzano.com">ZANO drone</a> is designed to sense and avoid obstacles and is perfect for anyone new to drone piloting, or anyone interested in putting a drone to good use as a flying, selfie-taking, remote aerial vehicle.</p>
<div></div>
<p><span>The </span>ZANO<span> drone flies itself, and therefore, couldn't be easier to use. The designers of this miniature drone tout its accessibility and ease of use, calling it "the every man drone." Basically, if you have a smartphone, you can enjoy using this smart drone. With sensors built in to the </span>ZANO<span> which constantly detect objects or walls in its vicinity, controlling this drone couldn't be easier, and with its ability to keep its HD camera honed in on your </span>iDevice<span>, taking aerial </span>selfies<span> of yourself is done with ease.</span></p>
<p><img alt=" Meet the ZANO Autonomous Drone, Aerial Selfies were Never this Easy!" src="http://static.iphonelife.com/sites/iphonelife.com/files/resize/IMG_2021-500x667.JPG" style="height:667px; width:500px" title="" width="500" height="667" /></p>
<p>The ZANO is ultra-portable, so it's easy to carry on outdoor adventures to great locations. It gets 10–15 minutes of flight time per battery charge, with the caveat that the HD camera settings default to 720p at 30fps in the interest of extending battery life. In future firmware updates I am anticipating that both the camera resolution as well as the flight control mechanism will be able to be custom calibrated as independent developers create remote control apps for the ZANO using the company's SDK.</p>

<p>If you can't see the video embedded above, just click <a href="http://youtu.be/hgkbhjXTbOE">HERE</a>.</p>
<p><span>The </span>ZANO<span> is scheduled to start shipping to early backers by the middle of the year and it should be widely available by the fall, at a price point of just shy of $200. We'll definitely keep you posted as to when exactly you can get your hands on this autonomous flying drone.</span></p>

<p>Amsterdam, Netherlands - November 14, 2014 - AILO Foundation is pleased to announce that their crowdfunding campaign has launched and is running on Indiegogo.<br />
AILO stands for Airport Indoor Location. The nonprofit foundation goal is to install AILO on as many airport terminals as possible, without any costs for them to ensure the fastest adoption and make this amazing technology freely available to air travellers all over the world.</p>
<p>Indoor Location is like a very high precision GPS system that uses several smartphone sensors like wifi, bluetooth, magnetometer, gyroscope (among several others) to provide very detailed location info to be used by any mobile maps app including iOS Maps and Google Maps to provide indoor navigation features like: showing your position on a map or the exact direction you need to follow to reach somewhere else, estimated time to reach destination, points of interest (gates, elevators, info kiosks, bathrooms, etc). </p>
<p>Airports are big places with tremendous daily human traffic. Most of them have poor signage that make the traveller experience stressful and chaotic. Despite increasing user complaints about signage and poor guidance information, airports have not created any solutions to the complex problem of airport terminal navigation.<br />
AILO Foundation founders believe that any successful solution for this problem should be provided by an independent entity without any commercial interests that tend result in personal privacy exploitation and user tracking practices, hence the decision to setup as a nonprofit and launch a crowdfunding campaign to support it. </p>
<p>Through their Indiegogo crowdfunding campaign AILO Foundation team hopes to show to airports around the world the amount of interest their public has in this technology and its fast adoption and how the public would ultimately benefit from its implementation. </p>
<p>The team will work with Apple specifications to provide the most reliable and accurate experience on iOS devices. Android will also be supported. Support for Windows Phone will be added as soon as possible. </p>
<p>AILO Advantages:<br />
• allows airports to provide a more user friendly experience to their users, especially important on bigger, busier airports;<br />
• very helpful both for occasional tourists and also for regular business travellers that have to use airports frequently;<br />
• any interested mobile apps will benefit from it as it will be natively integrated into the smartphones mapping capabilities;<br />
• it will facilitate finding departure gates, check-in counters, info kiosks, baggage claims, duty free shops, restaurants, and several other points of interest located across the airport.</p>
<p>When available this technology allows any mobile maps app including iOS Maps and Google Maps to:<br />
• display exactly where you are on a map;<br />
• provide a virtual path directing you to your gate and letting you know how far you are and how long it will take you to get there;<br />
• allow visually impaired people to be able to move independently inside airports with audio feedback;<br />
• show the path you need to follow as well as relevant points of interest overlaid over the camera image while you point it around (augmented reality).</p>
<p>"With AILO, airport users will be able to easily navigate inside an airport using only their smartphone," commented founders Nuno Pereira and Ana Afonso. ”We believe Indoor Location technology has the potential to turn the most chaotic airport terminal into a pleasant user experience, both for the seasonal tourist and for the diehard flyer. Sadly, we feel it will take too long for airport administrations to be motivated to adopt this technology by themselves. This is why we believe AILO Foundation will have a fundamental role in the development of Indoor Location technology as a commonplace technology widely available to the public.”</p>

<p>Travelog – Smart and Simple City Guides – Now available in the app store<br />
Singapore-based Travelog, is evolving from a travel sharing platform to an aggregator. Designed to make travel simple, convenient and mobile-friendly. Travelog’s new version aims to help travellers get the necessary information they need for a trip, be it must-see landmarks, city information or great watering spots. It will also show review scores, maps, and contact details for specific locations by drawing from a number of different services like Foursquare and Google Maps.<br />
Singapore – October 2014 – Available now, the Travelog app offers travellers a single travel app where they can do everything from their research and planning to experiencing and sharing.<br />
The app will initially launch with a focus on 11 popular Asian cities with a view to rolling out in more markets in the coming months.<br />
The app, developed by entrepreneurs and travel enthusiasts; Matt Kwa, CEO, Youngun Cho, CTO and Robinson Park, Lead Developer, is a response to the large array of content curation, meta search and user generated travel apps available today. Existing apps, individually, currently give users a partial or broken view of the local information they are seeking and revenue is prioritised over user experience.<br />
“The travel industry continues to become even more fragmented with hyper-niche target markets, making it even harder to get discovered. We look to be the glue that puts some of these amazing ideas, travellers, communities, entrepreneurs and publications all in one place.” – Matt Kwa, Travelog CEO<br />
Travelog’s point of difference largely lies in its collaborative, complete approach and its focus on the traveller’s user experience rather than just revenues. Matt explains that the focus is on developing an app that concisely presents the information most valuable to travellers in one place, shortlisting the things to do and places to visit and their engagement with airline, hotel and activity partners will be simply as an extension of their brands, who will utilise Travelog as an interactive, mobile and socially powered distribution channel.<br />
“Today’s travel landscape is cluttered with mobile apps offering inspiration, community, recommendations and reviews. Travelog’s new app will go a long way towards reordering this information to simplify how travellers store, organise, book and share their travel information.” – Matt Kwa, Travelog CEO<br />
To coincide with the launch of the new app, Travelog have also undergone a rebranding exercise, refreshing their logo and web and app look and feel. The refresh provides Travelog with a more fluid, lively brand image to work with. They now have an identity to support their ambitious plans as their offering continues to evolve and diversify. At the moment, the iOS app provides local information about Beijing, Shanghai, Seoul, Singapore, Bangkok, Phuket, Chiang Mai, Kuala Lumpur, Hong Kong, Tokyo and Bali. The service is also available on the desktop, <a href="http://www.travelog.me/" title="http://www.travelog.me/">http://www.travelog.me/</a> and mobile web is available for tablet and Android users. Videos will be added to the platform soon. For more information download the app here or visit travelog.me.<br />
About Travelog:<br />
To date, the app, which was first launched in June 2013, has garnered more than 25,000 users and 50,000 downloads. Users of Travelog can access shortlists of information on local attractions and things to do and collect, store and share information with other users in the Travelog community, and book flights, hotels and activities through their trusted partners.</p>

<p>TravelbyArt, is a new iPhone app that lets you discover Paris through the eyes of her most legendary artists, writers, singers and composers of the 20th century.<br />
The app has twenty carefully designed tours that reveal the important places in the lives of such artists as Ernest Hemingway, Pablo Picasso and Edith Piaf. Paris is indeed a movable feast, and so we have also selected great places to eat and drink along the way in each tour.</p>
<p>TravelbyArt guides the user to dozens of places in Paris where the artists lived, the studios where they worked, the restaurants and bars where they ate, gathered and met friends. Each location has it's own mesmerizing story, enriched with media content including excerpts from books, famous artworks, and archive photos. The app also allows users to explore each artist's life through a timeline feature that shows the chronological course of their life in Paris.</p>
<p>The app includes easy to follow offline maps and offers useful transportation tips, so the user does not need an internet connection to navigate their way. In addition, the maps are linked to your Iphone’s internal GPS, so at the touch of a button you can instantly find out exactly where you are on the map you are viewing.</p>
<p>The app is free including the entire Hemingway tour and offers additional tours and artists through in-app purchases. You can download TravelbyArt for iPhone for free <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/travelbyart-discover-paris/id890775910" title="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/travelbyart-discover-paris/id890775910">https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/travelbyart-discover-paris/id890775910</a>.</p>
<p>“We have been working tirelessly to make TravelbyArt app a first-class mobile travel experience. This unique approach, to follow in the steps of great artists, allows one to see Paris in a completely new way. I hope this method of time-travelling will be appealing not only for Hemingway or Picasso fans but also for everyone interested in modern culture" - says Beata Misiewicz, the founder of TravelbyArt.</p>

<h2><span>Heavy-Duty iPhone 5/5s Cases</span></h2>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="http://www.bike2power.com/ArmorGuard-bike-kit-mount-case-iphone-5-5S.html"><strong>MountCASE with ARMORGuard</strong>&nbsp;</a><strong>($79.95)</strong></p>
<p><img alt=" The Latest Abuse-Proof Headphones, Speakers, iPhone Cases" src="http://static.iphonelife.com/sites/iphonelife.com/files/resize/bike2power-400x382.jpg" style="width:400px; height:382px" title="" width="400" height="382" /></p>
<p><span>The MountCASE is technically a full-time use iPhone case, meaning that you don't have to take it off to charge it or access any of the iPhone's features or controls. That said, I think the case is a little bulky for most people to want to use it full time, even though it's possible and the level of protection you gain may be worth the trade off of having a slimmer profile case. Fortunately the MountCASE is a breeze to put on and take off so its no big deal to swap it out for a lighter case when you don't need its higher level of ARMORGuard protection. This IP-68 waterproof case is specially designed to be attached most any type of handlebar via a special mounting apparatus&nbsp;<a href="http://www.bike2power.com/MountCase-accessories">(sold seperately)</a>.</span></p>

<p><span>This IP-68 waterproof case is one of my&nbsp;favorites&nbsp;of the current crop of iPhone 5/5s full-time use waterproof cases. Its sleek and slim profile add little in the way of extra bulk to the iPhone. The way it fully reveals the iPhone's front and back sides lets the inherent elegance and beauty of the iPhone shine through. I have personally beat the&nbsp;heck&nbsp;out of my iPhone with it in this case and I am happy to say both iPhone and case are still in&nbsp;excellent&nbsp;condition.</span></p>

Its 2,200 mAh battery not only provides you with a full iPhone recharge, it is also replaceable. This means that after a battery's average (300-500 cycles) lifespan, you can swap it out for a new one, or just keep a spare one around for extra back-up. The full-time use Refuel Aqua iPhone 5S case has an IP-X8 protection rating.</span></p>
